Butterfly blue pea flower, also known as Clitoria ternatea, is a kind of plant that is native to Southeast Asia. It has beautiful blue flowers and has been used for centuries for its medicinal and culinary properties. The flower petals contain a natural blue pigment called anthocyanin which is not only responsible for the beautiful color but also has antioxidant properties that are beneficial for human health.
Benefits
Butterfly pea flower tea is known to have cognitive enhancing effects as it contains flavonoids that improve brain function. Its anxiolytic properties can also help to reduce stress and anxiety levels. Additionally, when used externally, the plant has been found to promote hair growth due to its ability to improve blood circulation and reduce inflammation.
Uses
Dried butterfly blue pea flowers can be used in many ways. One of the most common ways is to brew them into a tea. To make butterfly blue pea flower tea, simply add a handful of the dried flowers (around 3-4 flowers per cup of boiling water) to a teapot or infuser and let it steep for 5-10 minutes. You can add honey, lemon, or other herbal ingredients to enhance the flavor.
Butterfly blue pea flower is also used as a natural blue dye in cooking and baking. It can be used to color desserts, rice dishes, and even cocktails. To use it as a dye, simply boil the dried flowers in water until the water is a deep blue color, strain the liquid, and use it to color your food or drink.
Finally, dried butterfly blue pea flowers can also be added to bath bombs, soaps, and other personal care products to impart a natural blue color and antioxidant benefits to the skin.
